ABSTRACT:
A corrosion inhibiting aqueous steam generation medium for use in the secondary system of a nuclear steam generator comprises from about 5 to 10 ppm boric acid and an equimolar amount of a polyhydric compound, such as a lower alkyl glycol or glycerol, capable of reacting with the boric acid to increase its acid strength and therefore its corrosion inhibiting properties and produce therewith, a volatile diol boric acid complex.
